Two animals required assistance. - Fire rescue team saves a parrot and a deer.
Early in the morning, around 6:30 AM, the city's animal rescue team at the fire department received a distressing call. Passersby had reported that a deer was trapped in the waters of Dattel-Hamm Canal (NRW). Due to the surrounding sheet piling, the deer couldn't access land, putting its life at risk.
The team immediately dispatched a water rescue unit from the fire department. They used a boat to save the exhausted roe buck from its watery prison.
"Time for a quick break on land, and then it's back to its natural habitat - the fields and meadows," commented a spokesperson from the fire department.

Next save: a feathered friend
The emergency services had barely a moment's rest when they were inactive no longer. A parrot was in desperate need of assistance - it had fled its home and was now stranded on the roof of a three-story house.

Before the firefighters could arrive at the scene, the bird had flown away yet again.
A few hours later, the parrot turned up in a tree. One of the emergency responders, accompanied by the parrot's owner and a second parrot as a distraction tactic, made their way up the turntable ladder.
